Why Strawberry-Peach Chia Seed Smoothie is a Healthy Choice

This smoothie combines nutrient-dense ingredients that are perfect for boosting your health. Almond milk serves as a low-calorie, dairy-free base, while Greek yogurt provides a creamy texture and a good dose of protein and probiotics. Chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and antioxidants, making them great for heart health and digestion. Frozen strawberries and peaches add natural sweetness, vitamins, and fiber, and dark sweet cherries bring a burst of antioxidants to the mix.

The combination of dates gives the smoothie a natural sweetness without adding refined sugars, making this a healthier alternative to sugary drinks. This smoothie is also high in potassium, which is important for maintaining healthy blood pressure, and vitamin C, which supports your immune system.

Nora’s Tips for the Best Strawberry-Peach Chia Seed Smoothie

Add greens: If you want to boost the nutritional value of this smoothie even further, add a handful of spinach or kale. The sweetness of the fruit will mask the flavor of the greens.
Use fresh dates: If you have fresh dates on hand, use them instead of dried dates. Just make sure to remove the pits and chop them into smaller pieces before adding to the blender.
Make it sweeter: If you like your smoothies a bit sweeter, feel free to add an extra date or a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
Customize the fruit: Don’t have peaches or cherries? You can swap them for other fruits like mango or pineapple for a different tropical flavor.
